"This book explores relations between states in the Africa-European Union relationship in view of the African Continental Free Trade Area, both at a regional level and as a series of informal processes of socioeconomic and political interactions between state and non-state actors. The book reconsiders the ways in which actors in the Africa-European Union relationship function, and what that means for regionalism, regionalisation, and regional integration. In addition to formalised state-to-state and inter-regional interactions, the book examines the impact of socioeconomic and political interactions with non-state actors, including those who engage with regional integration through formal and informal processes such as civil society activitists, "African migration evangelists", human smugglers and human traffickers. The book thus demonstrates that regional and inter-regional engagements include issues that extend beyond the usual discussions of trade. The book is authored from an African perspective and will be of interest to academics who specialise in International Relations, Political Economy, Political Sociology and African Studies. Policy makers and various actors in civil society and think tanks who have an academic inclination and deal with trade, migration, and regionalism in Africa and Africa's relations with Europe will also find the book beneficial"-- Provided by publisher.
